What we need is something different to what we have. We need someone who has some pace but who also has some technical ability. Someone who the ball doesn’t bounce off. Who can carry the ball past a man but also do something in a tight space.
He’s only 21. We aren’t going to pay for the perfect 25yo pro finished. Look what Utd payed for Sancho or Anthony.
Both these players have flaws (and you can throw in Cherki) especially without the ball, but all young enough to coach “effort” it’s the technique and craft we are lacking.
Look at difference Klopp has made to some of his squad.
We can’t keep watching our great approach play come to fuck all because Richarlison can’t trap a ball, Johnson can only run in one direction, Kulusevski has the pace and dribbling ability of an armchair.
And I’m suggesting 6 month punts. They don’t work, send them back. Or go and pay the fucking money for the sure thing.
